Got a new chair at the farm. Apparently it belongs to my Dad. He can have it as long as he likes. Love having him around.

Happy Birthday to the GOAT, my dad, a person with no social media presence, no email, and doesn’t even get texts. I hope to be every bit the hero to my kids as he still is to me at 80. A brief thread on his awesomeness:

Had to drop off a debater early this morning so thought I deserved some Saturday morning self-care. No, they did not forget two of my maple long Johns. Driving is hard work.

I’m a recovering KS politico so I’m used to always saying positive things about my home state. But Kansas weather can just suck sometimes. It can suck so, so, so much.
